Skey brings your personal document library to a Chinese keyboard, so you can search, read and use your own reference material while typing.
Keep everyday notes, work documents and study question banks close at hand. Search within the keyboard, open a result to read it, then tap to insert the content you need into the current text field.
IMPORT YOUR OWN MATERIAL
Import PDF, TXT and Markdown files, or JSON question banks that follow the included template. Select multiple files at once, or paste text to create a new document. PDFs must contain extractable text; OCR for scanned documents is not supported.
SEARCH AND READ IN THE KEYBOARD
Search using Chinese characters, pinyin, English or numbers. Combine keywords with spaces and narrow your search to a specific document or question bank. Browse results by category, read the full content, and choose to insert a passage, question or short-answer response. For fill-in-the-blank questions, tap an answer to insert it.
OFFLINE CHINESE INPUT
Type with the built-in Rime offline pinyin engine. Choose a full keyboard or nine-key Chinese layout in the app. English, numbers and punctuation are also supported.
ON-DEVICE PROCESSING
Document import, indexing, search and Chinese input conversion all take place on your device. Skey does not upload your documents, log your keystrokes or automatically read your clipboard.
Basic typing and document search work without Allow Full Access. You can optionally enable it for key vibrations. Purchases, restoring purchases and opening online support or privacy pages require an internet connection.
FREE TO START, UNLOCK ONCE
The free version lets you keep one question bank with up to 15 questions. Regular PDF, TXT and Markdown documents do not count toward this question-bank allowance.
Unlock Skey Unlimited with a one-time in-app purchase to remove the free limits on the number of question banks and questions. There is no recurring subscription, and purchases can be restored. Technical limits on file size and content length still apply to keep on-device processing reliable. See the purchase screen for your local price.
GETTING STARTED
Add Skey's Library Keyboard in iOS Settings, then switch to it using the globe key. Some apps and password fields may require the system keyboard.
